Manchester United has officially announced that Rasmus Hojlund will don the iconic No. 9 shirt for the 2024–25 season. This change follows Anthony Martial’s departure from the club in June, leaving the coveted number vacant.
Hojlund, who joined Manchester United from Atalanta during the last summer transfer window, initially wore the No. 11 shirt in his debut season at Old Trafford.
Despite facing challenges and finding the net 16 times in 43 competitive appearances, the young Danish striker did not meet the high expectations set for him as a key offensive addition. Nevertheless, the club’s management and coaching staff continue to believe in his potential and talent.

Awarding Hojlund the No. 9 shirt is a significant vote of confidence from Manchester United. This number has historically been associated with some of the club’s greatest forwards, symbolizing a key attacking role and the pressure that comes with it.
At just 21 years old, Hojlund has shown glimpses of his capabilities, and this new responsibility signifies the club’s faith in his development and future contributions.
Ready to lead the line.
